Gongular looks pretty cool, but it seems like development stopped. Is there any other library that does similar things? I love learning about new frameworks/libraries in golang for exactly that reason of reducing boilerplate and spendi

Just apply to another job and then don’t quit your original job.

I was curious so I looked at the employment agreements for my last three jobs, and as far as I could tell, none of them explicitly forbade working elsewhere, nor required or expected 8 hours a day dedicated to work. Still not sure though.

Unfortunately, it's not an intuitive idea and it's deeply rooted in the history and development of classical mechanics. One way of looking at the Lagrangian is via the Legendre transform from the Hamiltonian, which in my opinion i

I'm not the OP, but generally JVM applications are very resource hungry under small loads, although I will concede this matters less as load increases, and the extreme OOP style of programming that Java encourages, in my opinion, leads

It's pretty absurd that the quickest way to find their (and honestly a lot of companies') github is by googling "companyname github".

There's https://www.risingwave.dev which is similar to materialize.

That's honestly too bad. I used it to log into Destiny 2 to buy items that were on rotation when I wasn't able to be at my desk to do so, like traveling or already in bed and too lazy to go downstairs.

How are they offering such low prices? Overprovisioning users?

Except the employee is paid for travel, transportation, food, and lodging. A while back when I was working at a company that had significant spending in GCP, we'd get free tickets to Next. My director basically said that there wasn&#x2

The cloud service is probably the biggest one. But it's not just that. JAMstack is getting more and more popular, so you'll need to support "serverless" as well as a way to query via HTTP. Which means you'll need so

I'd be really interested in a series that would go over how you might write code in one language (say c++, java, python, whatever), how you might try to write it in Rust and the problems it entails, and then how to write it properly. I

I'm glad generics saw good adoption. My wish is that they improve the efficiency of closures so that we can use generic functions to efficiently operate on slices and maps. Writing a for loop just for checking membership is quite tedio

Honestly, only to the extent that you need to set up your schema. But if your queries aren't too complicated, you can just use the client which is fairly straightforward.

How would you do it if you had much more modest scale requirements? Say a few thousand simultaneous viewers. I'm kicking around an idea for a niche content video streaming service, but I don't know much about the tech stacks for i

Does it also mimic the macOS command meta key? Ie cmd+c for copy, cmd+v for paste etc?

I would say it's definitely one of the missing pieces in their documentation. They have an example policy for the typical scenario of only allowing a user to read/update/delete their own resources, but there's definitely

If you're not comfortable then that's totally ok, especially because it's not as easy to test it automatically, but it's definitely allowed me to do away with a backend completely except for a webhook, so that's bee

If all you care about is the database, then yes there's a good chance that Neon will greatly outperform. But Supabase is much more than that since it includes authentication, functions, file storage, and their realtime feature. For me,

I think the best part is that if you're willing to go all in on RLS for your authorization, you can do away with needing a backend for your typical crud operations and use their functions for things like webhooks, or the occasional end

I'm curious how many nodes end up in the consensus group, presumably you don't want more than 3 because throughput scales 1/N, unless their implementation can alleviate that significantly.

They're a great companion book, but you really need a book that guides you through derivations and computations. Some techniques are non-obvious like choosing coordinate systems to make integrals easier, clever contours when applying r

I'll be honest, at this point i have no idea why I like postgres more than mysql, but I have a feeling there's a good reason for that and I don't really want to re-learn why.

Postgresql is itself a game changer for this kind of service. There was firebase, fauna, and some others, but no actual honest to god SQL. And thank god that it's postgres and not mysql.

This might be the case for k-12 and maybe lower level courses, but this was _definitely_ not the case for when I was taking group theory, real analysis, etc. With that said, someone else in the comments mentioned that while it might seem th

This is the same situation as when special relativity was being developed. The equations for the mechanical theory of the aether looked exactly the same as the equations for special relativity. Similarly any modified gravity theory will be
